After posting a perfect 10 of 10 in last week's contest, I looked forward to this week's picks with hopes of continuing the streak this time around but some tougher matchups will likely make that a difficult proposition. But here goes anyway.

Here are this week's Beat The Blogger matchups. Because nobody Beat The Blogger last week, this week's winner will receive (2) authentic signed 8-by-10 photos featuring the likes of LaDainian Tomlinson, Santonio Holmes, Gale Sayers, Drew Brees among others. With March Madness rapidly approaching, I went heavy on the NCAA matchups so you can all get some practice in before filling out your brackets in a couple weeks.
 
Last week several contestants including The Blogger himself, forgot to designate a "Doubler" pick to earn an extra point so learn from his mistake and make sure you don't forget to tag one of your picks as your "Doubler." It could mean the difference between 1st and 2nd place so don't underestimate the power of the "Doubler" and make sure you get your picks in a 1/2 hour before the start of the first game on Saturday to be eligible to win.
  
Spread the word about the contest to your friends and good luck.
